But the question is, can you drive? πŸ˜›

Oh stuff new years resolutions, I officially aint making any coz i NEVER stick to them so why bother wasting time thinking about it. I'm just going to go with the flow and whatever is meant to be will be.

I don't see the point of keeping new years resolutions!!!! πŸ™

It's pointless!!!!

So I guess the only resolution I'm keeping is.....My new years resolution is not to keep a new years resolution! πŸ˜‚

Oh come on people, you have to make New Years Resolutions! Even if they are rubbish and you know you're not going to keep to them! Actually, I didn't do too bad this year - even though these resolutions are similar to last years lol!

Ok, I really need to get more confident with my driving. I hate it. I'm not rubbish (apart from my parking), I just don't like it and I've been driving for 3 years now!

And I really need to read more, in general, but particularly the Quran, ATM it's only on the morning of my tajweed lesson.

And I have to try save more this year. I've spent quite a lot of money this year and apart from my stupid car I don't have that much to show for it.

My life is disordered. I will get it in order, physically and temporally and do the following:

1. Regulate my time with rigour. (Will keep a tight schedule.)

2. Stick to the plan, make it happen and happen as intended. (Will cross-reference my notes with my diary and refer to it often.)

3. Keep everyone in the picture, don't let contact slide. (Will keep a written address book and hold myself to making regular contact and spending time together.)

assalamu alaikum everyone

can i just quote a hadith:

the Prophet ο·Ί said "In the morning, never speak about yourself in the next evening, and in the evening, never speak about yourself in the next morning."

IMO we should focus on what we can do NOW to please our Lord, because if we keep saying we'll do something tomorrow, then tomorrow might never come

w'salam

-Join the gym. Exercise releases those β€œhappy/carefree neurones” which are desperately needed.

I'm pretty good at sticking to rules/targets which I pretty much enforce on myself throughout the year.

why make resolutions only once a year?

i've never followed this thing, seems like most people dont follow their resolutions anyway

if Israel can break resolutions, why cant i!
